Grapes.
This Tenugui cloth from Rienzome features a grape motif. Grapes are a popular fruits in Japan. Already popular when they were transported and traded on the silk road, they were said to be the favorite fruit (and wine) for Greek god Bacchus; and therefore became to represent parties, drunkenness, fun times, and a food "close to heaven"!

"Tenugui" is often translated as "Japanese towel", but this translation fails to cover their versatility and cultural significance. Tenugui are not only used as hand towels and handkerchiefs, but also function as fashion items, gift wrapping, souvenirs, sweat bands and padding (e.g. in the martial arts kendo), and of course as decorative items due to their often beautiful, funny or nostalgic patterns.

Please be aware that tenugui cloth by default never are hemmed, which allows them to dry very quickly.
